The table saw is unusable with the door closed. The bandsaw is only usable for small pieces if it's closed.
Because of room?

If you were to go the really poor mans route, how about a couple of heavy duty ratchet straps which you already have and use buffers on the edge of the table and a 2x4 across the top to stop bowing? Actually Swap's HF suggestion sounds like the way to go and then you will have it for future use.

Y'all trying to figure out how to fix it, I'm trying to figure out how it happened in the first place. Because it seems to me if you find the source, you prevent it from happening again. If the table is old, the question should be... why? Is there a structural issue? Termites? Humidity drop? Chuck Norris chopped the shit out of it? Andre the Giant body slammed your ass on it?
A new table does that, then it wasn't dried properly. But a vintage table does that and there is a REASON. Because like Carlos said (almost in passing), that's FORCE. If that was natural, that shit was LOUD.Remember when the rearend oil needed changing in his pickup?.......

Seems like almost every manufactured alternative to natural sugars turns out to have some critical drawback.
That's why I stick with the real thing in moderation. Remember when they came out with the alternative to butter, margarine? That didn't work out so well either.

Good job. It was a good idea you had to get a new antenna.

Hardest bit was cleaning off the old gasket.
Isn't that what was said two pages ago? 😀 So what did you end up putting in it?

All this info is for YOU right? Would it be the same results for everyone? I have noticed through life that people seem to vary how their body responds to different things.

Well there is always Soylent Green.

Here is a pic of my RS-3. They are early ones that are made of aluminum. I think they went to stainless later.

I wonder about the difference between mounting indoors as apposed to outdoor as far as signal strength?

Just sharing. It would never have crossed my mind to even look at doing this, until I saw their warning not to do this when I was about to just order their pack.
I guess it's like when I got that prescription drug that would be $1040, and searching for prices, I saw the manufacturer warning people about clones from compounding pharmacies and China. Wait...I have options!
I didn't ask in a negative way but I would be temped to write them a note calling out their BS about not changing the batteries yourself.

A helicopter?

My Explorer also uses 75w140 in the rear but 75w-90 in the front. Zero either look in the manual that came with the truck or call or stop in any Ford dealer and ask for parts dept. and ask them. They will tell you the correct answer and the amount you will need.

I use RightStuff Black, but pretty much any automotive sealant will work.
I don't see RightStuff a lot on the shelves in my area but PERMATEX® ULTRA BLACK® RTV SILICONE GASKET MAKER is which I use all the time just in case he can't find your stuff.

Like Super said earlier, put both tires in the air, spin forward. Do both tires spin forward or does one spin backwards?

I may be dating myself, but some systems do go without maintenance under NORMAL use. You don’t replace steering fluid or change the lube in CV joints just because of age or mileage. I normally expect that items needing maintenance have indicators like drain/fill ports or grease fittings. Otherwise, you don’t fuck with it.
I just replaced the power steering fluid in one of my vehicles a couple of months ago. Most but not all automatic transmissions haven't had a drain plug on them through the years and yet many manufacturers stated that the fluid needed changed.

Double sigh.

The general rule I’ve been told is to not open things up unless absolutely necessary. So, no drain hole tells me to not fuck with it.
Do you really believe that gears meshing together for 25 years, 216,000 miles wouldn't benefit from a fluid change? Why even ask about it if you wasn't going to do it to begin with?
